Dec. 16, 2023: Sheriff Ken McClure of Sac County says nothing is off the table in the investigation of missing trucker David Schultz. Schultz was found in April 2024.
WALL LAKE, Iowa — On a Thursday morning, in Sarah Schultz's eat-in kitchen, two pairs of muddy children's hiking boots lay scattered on the wood floor underneath a green chalkboard. Printed in big dusty letters on the chalkboard was the message: "Bring Dave home."

Sac County Sheriff Ken McClure said that with the use of a K9 unit, David Schultz's scent was "tracked to a field drive," possibly the one shown here just north of the intersection of County Road N-14 and D-15.
Sarah Schultz said her husband is "hardworking to a fault." He would work without a day off for weeks on end. She said he loves his job, which he has been doing for "years and years." His father was also a truck driver.
